"The fifth" (highest) degree of "spirit is the Holy Spirit... (which is the Mediator between God and His creatures." "The fourth degree of spirit is... the spirit of faith...; it comes from the breath of the Holy Spirit, and by the divine power it becomes the cause of eternal life. It is the power which makes earthly man heavenly, and the imperfect man perfect;... it makes the ignorant wise." "The human spirit, unless assisted by the spirit of faith, does not become acquainted with the divine secrets and the heavenly realities." (Saq 163; Saq 165; Bwf 317)
(39:7)
